This looks very much like a Thonet bistro chair. Imagine Paris in the belle epoque. Gauguin or Degas could have been sitting on a chair like this. Although the chair would probably have been in a different colour.

These chairs bear a slight resemblance to a classic Bauhaus design by Mart Stam or Marcel Breuer. But they’ve seen their better days. Don’t use your design chair as a stepladder. They were obviously cheap remakes. Or should the conservators of the Hague’s Gemeentemuseum have been notified?

From January 19 till January 31 there will be an exhibition of recent works at Boekie Woekie, Berenstraat 16, Amsterdam. Opening on Saturday, January 19 at 4 pm. Also presentation of Trashtown Magazine # 65. https://boekiewoekie.com/
